Hi,

   I have one list Requests. I want to send approval request to initiators manager for each request.

Share point users are coming from active directory(already integrated). I want to know how to use the Manager property for achieving this.

Hi NIDHIN C‌:

Are you using O365 or On-Prem?

For On-Prem: https://community.nintex.com/message/50232-re-assign-to-manager-of-person-or-group-field?commentID=50232#comment-50232  

For O365:  Assigning a Task to an Office 365 Manager 

Cheers,

If you really mean the manager of the workflow's initiator you could just grab it from the Manager Variable:

  1. Open your Approval action (request approval or flexi task)
  2. Click on the book icon at assignees
  3. open "Lookup" section
  4. Grab the Manager variable
